Constant "extensions updated, please restart..." (1.15.10)

[bgscharnhorst]

Hello. I tried searching the forums for this problem, but couldn't find anything that exactly addresses what I'm seeing, so I'm submitting a new topic. My apologies if I'm duplicating a topic, feel free to reply with a link to the proper chain.

 

I am using Vortex version 1.15.10. I'm modding Skyrim SE with 56 mods, 3 of which are currently disabled. I am using Windows 10, x64, with 16G of RAM. I'm not a novice modder, but by no means an expert.

 

Previously I was able to run 54 Skyrim SE mods flawlessly with Vortex. There was a recent update to Skyrim that rendered "Engine Fixes (Part 1)" unusable, so I disabled that. But also, I'm now seeing this endless repeating message come up: "Extensions updated, restart to apply them." I restart, but the message comes right back up. Furthermore, I'm noticing that not all my mods are working now, but I'm not getting any mod error messages at all.

I've attached a screenshot of what I keep seeing.

 

Any thoughts? Thanks.

 

EDIT: Probably worth mentioning, I have Steam installed on my machine (but I'm running SSE through Vortex, not that), and everything is located on my C: drive, no other drives.

go into downloads in vortex - you should see the extension there - delete it and this should go away.

for the life of me i have no idea why, after an extension is installed successfully its not removed from this area.

Probably for the same reason a mod isn't deleted from the downloads section after installing it?

yeah, but the question is - why?

if the extension is installed correctly and there's no further use for it, why does it linger and cause the repeat message to appear? surely its neater/simpler all round to clean up once the extension is installed?

Sounds like something that is worth raising as a feature suggestion via the app. Tannin might have a technical reason why that won't work.

nice one mate - i am almost certain there's a very obvious reason for it :)

 

i will generate a request after work tonight.
